How much would they need to pay you to recover body parts, or people mangled under trains then, like the emergency services do??

It is probably more to do with the fact that the transport minister is terrified that the transport system could grind to a halt during the olympics. Shame they aren't also paying those that will have to deal with any incidents the same sort of money. They are just being told to do their job.
